A week ago, I watched one of my hens slurp down a foot long garter snake. I've seen them eat smaller snakes, just fine, but never one this large. Well, her crop is impacted with what I assume is a snake. I've gone through the normal crop clearing techniques, with no success, obviously. Is there any chance of it clearing on its own at this point?
I've done crop surgery before, so I don't mind doing it again. I just didn't want to jump the gun if it could clear after a week.
She's eating, drinking, and acting normal, BTW.
